Disease of Money Counters.

A Washington correspondent, visiting
the Treasury Department, noticed that
many of the women employed in count
ing bank notes looked i'll, and had sores
upon their hands and heads. The super
intendent gave the following account of
the trouble: Very few who spend any
considerable time in counting money
escape the sores. They generally appear
first on the hands, but frequently they
break out on the head, and sometimes
the eyes are affected. Wecan do nothing
to prevent this. All the ladies take the
greatest care of themselves in their work,
but sooner or later they are afflicted with
sores. The direct cause Of the sores is
the arsenic employed in the manufacture
of the money. If the skin is the least
abraded, and the arsenic gets under the
flesh, sore will appear the next morn
ing. The habit that every one has of
putting the hand to the head and face is
the way the arsenic poisoning is carried
to those portions of the body. One of
the officials STOPPED by the side of a
young lady and picked up glass vessel
containing sponge; this sponge is wet,
and is used 10 moisten the fingers while
counting the money. 1t was quite black
from the arsenic. Every morning new
-piece of sponge is placed on the desk of
l,s-s,.--. 49, a--J a., sstsH
it is black. There were three ladies who
were six years before they were afflicted
with sores. About three months ago
they were so visited with them that they
had to quit work They have been away
ever since, and the physicians certificate
in each case says their blood is poisoned
with arsenic.

Punished for Blasphemy.

Here is an odd little episode, as de-
scribed in the London Times by its
Odessa correspondent: 1 was present
yesterday in the appellate court here
when an appeal was heard from Russian
pasant named Krzyzanoyski against the
sentence Of six months imprisonment ad-
Judged him by the Podolsk
tribunal for blasphemy. The appellants
offense was this: Tired and weary after
a long days labor in the harvest field
last year he entered the village tavern
and drank glass of vodkah After this
appetizer he was supplied with small
meat roll, called in Russian ''pirog.n
The peasant found the ''pirog" such ex-
cellent eating that he exclaimed: Il
would rather kiss the girl who made this
prog than the iconln The latter is the
sacred picture never absent from any
Russian habitation, before which 1t is
usual for visitors to uncover and cross
themselves. The peasants exclamation
was highly complimentary to the cook of
the tavern, but the parish priest, to whom
it was reported, heard and Judged it in
a different light Hence the prosecution
and sentence The peasant, whom l saw
enter the box and devoutly cross himself
before the icon" in court, was middle
aged, jovial and gOod-tempered looking
man, who appeared much relieved by
tie court reducing the original sentence
TO one months arrest.

MISS VAN ZANDT.

It is astonishing, says one OF our
manageable citizens, that Miss Van
Zandt, the Chicago beiress would be
so excessively and cold-bloodedly de-
termined to follow the anarchist
"Spies" to the very gallows, with ma
trimonisl intents, prepense and afore-
thought, having the lovely prospect Of
obtaining only the carcass of a felon,
as reward for her trouble and persist
ence. Why, be it known unto her that
there are suudry persons of the male
persuasion here, and ofany age, whose
fortunes and estates have been in
state of perpetual anarchy who would
save her the trouble Of straying hither
and yonder like lost spirit, by going
for her and her money at once. Men
surely must be scarce in her country
and as hard to reach as the fabled fruit
of the garden of Hesperides.
